Hideaways

📍 Local Knowledge

Hideaways in Kaua‘i is an exposed reef break offering fairly consistent surf, with winter providing the most favorable conditions. It works best when a north swell pairs with offshore winds from the south-southeast, producing clean, right-breaking waves over the reef. The spot is known for its scenic beauty and can attract a crowd when it’s firing. Despite its appeal, surfers should be mindful of localism and the potential presence of sharks. January typically brings the most reliable surf, making it the best time to catch Hideaways at its peak.
